Gucci is also a barker. She only barks when she hears a noise no stop. She doesn't bark when we are outside on her walks. I have tried praising her when she quiets down, but this only works for a little while. Sometimes she wouldn't even stop barking for a treat. I noticed thou that her barking is bad days when she seems anxious. Anxious about what, i dont know. Last nite she was barking and barking, but today she will quiet down when I tell her to Hush.
Good luck maddiesdad with Maddie. I dont like barking collars either.I have tried the spray bottle, can of pennies and hitting the wall with a magazine but it only startles(sp?) her her for a little while and she will keep barking.
I know Im doing something wrong, I will appreciate any ideas and tips.
I got this info about barking in the ASPCA website.
